Description
The line
self.label_suffix = label_suffix if label_suffix is not None else _(':')
in django.forms.forms.BaseForm.init uses ugettext(). To me it seems it should use ugettext_lazy as that line will be called when the model is defined. This means that the default language is used for translation instead of the use-time language. Using ugettext_lazy() should solve the issue.

I don't believe this is an issue.
Form.__init__is surely not called at module time - it's not a metaclasses'__new__which is called when the form is defined. The method takesdataandfileswhich are naturally user specified data, so it must be called during a response cycle.Also with the app loading changes to import sequence, these errors tend to blow up now if
ugettextis called at module level.
